Rhi and I are almost finished our move into the flat. Over the last week or so, with van-driving assistance from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
gytha_ogg and a family friend, plus the friendly hands-on help of sim_james, sad_frog and furpants_tom, we've successfully:
Yes, we moved four fridges yesterday. FOUR! We are so mighty. :)
Saturday, we moved the huge, mirrored wall unit into Russell's, too. It was heavier than any of the fridges by quite some way. Thankfully Tom had the incredibly clever idea of putting a screw into one of the holes in the side and looping a piece of cable he had around it, so I could lift it by that, rather than by the (almost hand-hold free) frame. This technique worked very well indeed. Hurray, Tom!
Theres still a few bits to do here and there (there's still some more stuff of mum's I'll take to the Warehouse, for instance), but we're in! Last night was our second night there.
It's good to live with Rhiannon.
Soon, I'll be able to turn the fridge on and we can keep food nice and cold. Hurrah!
gytha_ogg and a family friend, plus the friendly hands-on help of sim_james, sad_frog and furpants_tom, we've successfully:- Moved all of Rhi's stuff over from her old place,
- Moved some of my stuff over from the Warehouse (still lots I haven't moved, but I'm not on a tight schedule),
- Extracted LOADS of stuff from the flat,
- Moved furniture in order to vacuum the carpet under it and clean the wainscotts,
- Put in the new bed (Enormous four-poster! Comfy!),
- Moved out the fridge from the flat to our neighbour, Russell's,
- Moved Russell's old, very tired, fridge out for council clean-up,
- Put the drinks fridge in the van (I'm moving it into the Warehouse this afternoon),
- Installed Rhi's fridge in the kitchen
